In the times we live in, having a positive Christian voice in government and politics is more important than ever. A key aspect of the Christian life is the "cultural mandate," that is, the call to stand for light in an increasingly dark world.As Charles Finney once said, "The Church must take right ground in regards to politics . . . God will bless or curse the nation according to the [political] course Christians take."

Please understand, we are not "preaching politics." Ultimately, genuine change comes through changed hearts, which occurs as people respond to the Gospel of Jesus Christ. However, we do still live in a fallen, sinful world, and God has ordained the system of civil government to protect the innocent, and to maintain order in society (Romans 13: 1-7.)
The Christian life carries a prophetic voice which calls us to shine light into dark places. Jesus' call for His people to be salt and light to a dying world covers every aspect of life (Matthew 5:13-14,) including how we vote and relate to our government. Christians are to be peaceful, law abiding citizens, ( Romans 13:1-7; 1 Peter 2:13-15.) We are to pray for and honor our government leaders (1 Timothy 2:1,) faithfully pay our taxes (Matthew 22:21,) and to work for the highest good of all people (Proverbs 3:27; Galatians 6:10.) This includes working to promote Godly principals in politics and government . As Proverbs 29:2 puts it, " When the righteous are in authority, the people rejoice: but when the wicked beareth rule, the people mourn."

For this purpose, we offer these resources to mobilize Christians to make a difference in the world. Here you will find a collection of news related links to help you stay informed, as well as sites to help you in praying for our nation and leaders. There are also voting related links (including a site where you can register to vote online,) links to contact government officials, and links to a number of activist organizations which work to promote Biblical principals.
